After years of discussions and months of negotiations, I have little question that as long as this president is in the Oval Office, a real solution is unattainable.

The Wall Street Journalexplains further, “Mr. McConnell said he concluded after the latest negotiations that the administration had ‘expressed a fundamental unwillingness’ to agree to significant spending cuts.”

To conservatives who sometimes get pessimistic and say there’s basically no difference between Republicans and Democrats: Sometimes there’s a huge difference. Sometimes Republicans stand firm, like Gandalf against the Balrog. It’s what we elected them for, and they’re doing it. Give credit where credit is due!
